A SEX worker was on Tuesday bonded to keep the peace when she appeared before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court, charged with using threatening language.Tillich Lynch pleaded not guilty to the charge which alleged that on January 9 at 165 Laing Avenue, Georgetown, she used threatening language, threatening to poison Mark Thomas, the father of her nine –year- old child.
Thomas told the court that Lynch often goes away for days and would return a few days after. He added that only last Saturday she went away and did not return until Monday, when the child was already at school.
He pointed out the he works at a landfill site and would often be forced to take care of the child in the morning before going to work, because Lynch was seldom around.
Additionally, the father noted that Lynch threatened to poison him, causing him to start buying food on the road.
The Court also heard that the mother usually carries men to his residence, even when his child is around. The woman, in tears, told the Court that she is a prostitute who works hard for her money.
Police Prosecutor Michael Grant did not object to bail, and told the Court that while the two share the same residence, they are not on speaking terms.
The chief magistrate placed Lynch on her own recognizance, and the matter was then transferred to Magistrate Annett Singh, who adjourned the matter to January 26 for the commencement of trial.
